## org.bouncycastle.crypto.generators
Class ElGamalKeyPairGenerator

    java.lang.Object
      org.bouncycastle.crypto.generators.ElGamalKeyPairGenerator

All Implemented Interfaces:
  AsymmetricCipherKeyPairGenerator

public class ElGamalKeyPairGenerator
extends java.lang.Object
implements AsymmetricCipherKeyPairGenerator

a ElGamal key pair generator.

This generates keys consistent for use with ElGamal as described in page 164 of "Handbook of Applied Cryptography".

Constructor Summary
`ElGamalKeyPairGenerator()`

Method Summary
`AsymmetricCipherKeyPair` | `generateKeyPair()` return an AsymmetricCipherKeyPair containing the generated keys.
`void` | `init(KeyGenerationParameters param)` intialise the key pair generator.
